It is possible to pass --update to tests/qapi-schema/test-qapi.py to make it update the output files on error. This is inconvient to achieve though when test-qapi.py is run indirectly by make/meson.
Instead simply allow for an env variable to be set: $ QAPI_TEST_UPDATE=1 make check-qapi-schema Signed-off-by: Daniel P.
